A 56-year-old man has difficult-to-control asthma and a history of four exacerbations in the prior 12 months despite high-dose inhaled corticosteroids (ICS) and additional controller therapies. Is he suitable for more advanced therapeutic options? To address this query, we herein review the clinical assessment of a patient with suspected severe asthma ...

SummaryPatients with severe asthma have asthma symptoms which are difficult to control, require high dosages of medication, and continue to experience persistent symptoms, asthma exacerbations or airflow obstruction. Epidemiological and clinical evidences point to the fact that severe asthma is not a single phenotype.

Asthma is common among women of reproductive age and affects between 4% and 8% of pregnant women. Pregnancy outcomes are correlated to the degree of asthma severity and control. Approximately one-third of pregnant women with asthma remain stable, a third will have improvement of their asthma, and a third will have worsening of the disease.

SummaryAdherence in asthma is an important cause for concern. Although nearly 50% of asthma patients are considered poorly adherent to therapeutic advices, adherence is still difficult to assess, understand and improve despite major medical consequences.

peribronchial tissues. Eosinophilic myocarditis is a rare feature observed in various clinical situations; it can be isolated and idiopathic, or induced by drugs (such as antibiotics and carbamazepine). By contrast, the association of eosinophilic myocarditis with severe bronchial asthma, an eosinophil count of more than 10%, and history of severe food

Severe Exacerbations of Asthma
Critical Care Nursing Quarterly, 2004All asthmatics regardless of their perceived severity, are at risk of exacerbation, particularly if they are suboptimally treated in the outpatient arena. Fortunately most patients recover after administration of bronchodilators and anti-inflammatory medications, but preventable deaths continue to occur and refractory cases result in hospitalization ...

Severe asthma is poorly understood clinically, physiologically, and pathologically. While milder forms of asthma are generally easily treated, more severe forms often remain refractory to the best current medical care. Although some patients with severe asthma have had severe disease for most of their lives, there appears to be a second group that ...

Severe asthma represents less than 10% of all asthma, but these patients are responsible for a disproportionate share of the health care costs and morbidity associated with the disease. A significant challenge in the diagnosis and management of severe asthma is the ability to identify accurately the patients most at risk for adverse outcomes, such as ...

Abstract Acute severe asthma remains a major economic and health burden. The natural history of acute decompensations is one of resolution and only about 0.4% of patients succumb overall. Mortality in medical intensive care units is higher but is less than 3% of hospital admissions.

Fourteen patients with acute severe asthma necessitating hospital admission were all treated with a standard therapeutic regimen, and in addition received either bromhexine or placebo (initially intravenously and subsequently orally) double-blind. We were unable to show any significant improvement in the rate of recovery of the bromhexine-treated group,
